Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh strawberries
- 2 cups Fresh ripe peaches
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 170°F (or the lowest setting if your oven does not go this low). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Wash and hull the strawberries. Wash, peel, and pit the peaches. Cut both into chunks.
Place the strawberries and peaches into a blender or food processor. Add the lemon juice. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth, scraping down the sides as necessary.
Pour the blended fruit mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheets, spreading it out with a spatula until it's about 1/8 inch thick.
Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for about 4 hours. Rotate the pans halfway through the baking time to ensure the fruit leather dries evenly. The fruit leather is done when it is no longer tacky to the touch but still pliable. If parts are still sticky, continue baking, checking every 30 minutes.
Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool completely on the baking sheets.
Peel the fruit leather off the parchment paper in one piece and cut it into strips. You can use a sharp knife or scissors for best results.
Roll up the strips and store them in an airtight container or wrap them in wax paper, and then store in an airtight container for up to one week.
